IE doesn't support embedded stylesheets. What you can do is instead
embed the *data* within a *stylesheet*. For example:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="test.xsl"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
                xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
                xmlns:data="http://www.example.com/">

<data:data>
  <doc>
    Some data here.
  </doc>
</data:data>

<xsl:template match="xsl:stylesheet">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="data:data/*" />
</xsl:template>

...

</xsl:stylesheet>

IE will use this stylesheet on itself, and thus process the
information within the data:data element.

Cheers,

Jeni
